JavaScript

// Article lookup for external document ID

const host = "https://apis.ebsco.com";
const path = "/medsapi-dynamed/v2/publishers/{publisherId}/documents/{documentId}";

# Article lookup for external document ID

# Form the URL
urlstr = File.join("https://", "apis.ebsco.com", "/medsapi-dynamed/v2/publishers/{publisherId}/documents/{documentId}")
url = URI.parse(urlstr)

# Create the HTTP object
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE

# Create the request
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url)
request["authorization"] = "Bearer xyz"
request["Content-Type"] = "application/json"
request["Accept"] = "application/json"


# Send the request
